Great, this series looks really nice!

Does this solve the problems reported in the "2.6.29 git master and 
PAT problems" thread and addressed via an earlier patch of yours:

 Subject: [PATCH] x86, PAT: Remove page granularity tracking for vm_insert_pfn maps

i am worried about this particular patch - it looks more like a 
workaround than a true realization of a bug.
